Everything You Wanted To Know About 900 Mhz But Were Afraid To Ask.

Last night I had a very nice QSO with KD4CWB on his 147.000 repeater concerning the pros and cons concerning amateur radio operation concerning the 900 Mhz band.

What I suspected and he confirmed through his considerable knowledge and experience on the subject was that the main stumbling block is locating and converting commercial gear to use on the 33cm band.

I’ve been looking into getting a radio on the band and possibly putting together a repeater for remote base usage at home. During this time I’ve amassed quite a few quality links dealing with all things 900 Mhz. I’m going to post them here in order to share them with others in the amateur community as well as keeping them together in a place I can find them!
